2007 Year In ReviewFirst, here’s a little background on what you are reading and where it came from… I have a journal that I have with me every time that I read a new book. If I read a line or two that really inspires me, I write it down in my journal. With each book, I usually have 3-4 pages of really great stuff that I have written down. I think of these pages as a summary of the great ideas contained in the book. What I did is this, I read my entire journal for the entire year of 2007 which had 156 pages of written material. I then wrote down on a piece of paper all of the entries that most inspired me. So basically what you are getting is the greatest ideas that I learned from hundreds of hours of reading in 2007! Take your time as you read each line. Allow it to sink in and inspire you. Think about what it is saying and how you can use it to effect your life in some way. So without further ado, here are my top things learned from 2007… Have the strength to do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not. The person who makes the most mistakes has the most success because they are doers. People rarely succeed at anything unless they have fun doing it. Every successful person loves the game, the challenge, the chance to win. If you are to be successful, you must find self-confidence in the things you do well, and then pursue them. Move fast enough to get where you want to be, but slow enough to do it right the first time. Obvious things aren’t sticky. Note: Sticky refers to how rememberable your ideas are. Once a week, clean house! Update your lists. Note: Have a list of your goals and what you want to get done in the week ahead. Fear comes from surprises and the unexpected. The more familiar you are, the less fear you have. The key to creating a new mindset is consistency. Focus only on your vision and unlimited potential. The harder it gets, the better the chance you are separating yourself from the competition. Giving something away free makes them feel like they owe you and are much more likely to buy from you later. How much you can do depends on how much you think you can do. To be important, you must think you are important. People that get things done in this world don’t wait for the spirit to move them, they move the spirit. You must combine persistence with experimentation. Observe what works and what doesn’t. Every top performer has no question that they are going to get to the next level in their career. You have to learn to do the uncomfortable things until they are comfortable. Studies show that people who exercise in the morning are more creative and intelligent all day long. Fearlessness to write about something different will make you a lot of money. Conduct 5-10 different marketing tests on the web at all times. You don’t choose your passions, your passions choose time. Challenge the rules you follow on your day-to-day activities. Have the outlook that wherever you go, there are ideas waiting to be discovered. TV and web-surfing drain energy out of you long after you have finished watching them. When you focus on what you’re doing, time slows down for you. Practice is the best of all instructors. Say to yourself, “I deserve the best this world has to offer.” Read tomorrow’s to-do list before bed so your subconscious can go to work on it all night long. When it comes to eating fruits and vegetables, think “More and different.” Narrow your focus by cupping your hands. “Out of sight, out of mind.” Inspiration usually comes during work, rather than before it. Take the 5 minute test to get started. Note: Say to yourself, “I will work on this for five minutes. If I still don’t feel like working after that, I will quit.” A majority of the time you will keep working! Completion times are crucial to concentration. With all the time in the world, our mind has no incentive to apply itself. Similar to the second wind, the same thing works with your mind when you push through the fatigue. Have consistent working times and eventually it will become habit. Spend more time thinking of great ideas. To be remarkable, you need the guts to ask “What’s missing.” To be remarkable, you don’t need more experience. Beginning it is the experience. Something worth talking about is remarkable. Life is about the journey, not the destination. Success is nothing more than moving from one failure to the next with undiminished enthusiasm. People don’t care about how much you know until they know how much you care about them. You can have everything you want in life if you will just help enough other people get what they want. Think more about your successes and less about your failures. For example, when you play basketball, if you think about your misses you start missing everything. Be a travel junkie. When you feel bored or stale go somewhere random. To solve a problem, you have to believe that you already have the answer in your unconscious. Successful people use tuition and not just regurgitated textbook material to solve a problem. The moment you hesitate, say “Do it now!” It is inspirational dissatisfaction that converts the magic of desire into reality. Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. The more you think about your goals, the more enthusiastic you become. And with enthusiasm, your desire turns into a burning desire. We suffer one of two things, either the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. You’ve got to choose discipline. Regret is the accumulation of many bad years. If you do not see great riches in your imagination, you will never see them in your bank balance. A definite plan, plus a burning desire for wealth, are the only dependable means of accumulating wealth. The creative imagination becomes more alert, more receptive to influences, the more it is put to use. When driven by the desire to please a member of the opposite sex, individuals may be and usually are capable of great achievement. You must believe these three truths:
